Adjustable Rolling Pin

Precision is required for baking

It is said that cooking is an artform. A pinch here, a dab there, cook until golden brown... those are all, technically, measurements, but are hardly precise. Your smidgen might just be the same as my dash, and let's not even get us started on the differences altitude and humidity makes. Well, if cooking is an art, then baking is certainly a science.

Science requires precision. Reproducible results. As such, it needs precise measurement. Widths, weight, temperature - all must be controlled with the finesse of a scientist, otherwise the complex dance of chemistry and biology wouldn't happen correctly, and what would be a light and fluffy biscuit turns into the proverbial hockey puck.

Take the pie, for example. Something wondrous to behold when done properly. Horrific when not. The crust needs to be rolled out to exactly 1/8th of an inch for a good Apple Pie. Any more, and it'll be gummy, any less, and it won't hold up to slicing and serving. It takes a practiced hand to roll it out just right. If you lack said hand, there's no shame in using training wheels.

Yes, they make training wheels for rolling pins! Check this one out. It's got three sets of discs that press your rolled dough to a precise thickness. No more, no less. Indeed, when your recipe requires that your dough be, say, 12 inches in diameter, the measurements burned into the side of the rolling pin acts as a guide.

So, whether you're making pie, or cookies, or rolling out multi-layered buttery croissants, you'll never end up with flapjacks instead.
